By the light of a waxing half moon
Karl and I walked by the light of this moon. Just like the sunrise, sunset and alpenglow, I never tire of watching the moon and the stars. A still and beautiful night by the light of a waxing half moon.
Just another walk in the woods
The elusive snowflake and boredom with the camera
From the left portion of the above…
…the elusive snowflake..
Karl sat patiently waiting as I fussed with trying to capture snowflakes….
but it became obvious that he thought the entire procedure a bit tiresome…
Alpenglow…again
This is what I see from the window behind my desk as the alpenglow begins its fiery show. It does not happen every evening. A combination of clear skies in the right place to allow the setting sun’s reflecting rays to light sky and mountain tops – a small miracle of the right conditions – creates the glow which ranges from a pale pink to a vivid orangeish magenta. This night (January 14, 2009), I saw the glow through the trees and as on many other nights ran out to see what I could see and capture. For me, it is like sunrise and sunset – I never tire of watching the changing color and light.
Alpenglow…again.
Snowflakes
a start at macro…taking the tripod next time, but I can see the possibility.
